The Drive Home Lyrics

You said in passing

That you'd drive me home

I know it was nothing

But I cling to those words

And I'm so afraid that you'll push me away

I think you must be lying

I think of something to say

I'm sure I've heard about this before

I've been warned

You'd come along and it would hurt

I thought only I could fool my mind

I could be paranoid

Or I could be right

But I'd rather be alone in your arms

Than okay on my own

Safe and disarmed

You're nothing but pain

And I'm nothing but hurt

Just tear me apart

Dissuade and desert

When will I feel like myself again

Not like this

Tired, defensive, hopeless, and hellbent

On painting a picture

I can hang on the wall

Show it off

Convince them all

'Cause I'd rather be alone in your arms

Than okay on my own

Safe and disarmed

You're nothing but pain

And I'm nothing but hurt

Like grass in the spring

Ripped up from the dirt
